Hello,

I have a problem with my additive manufacturing simulation. I used the DED process add-on with a G-code. Clusters have been well created and all running good until I start the transient thermal solve. I use the 2022 R2 version of ANSYS.

Indeed when I start it, an error message appear : "Additive Manufacturing is not available for this product". Nevertheless, I followed the additive manufacturing user manual and I don't think I missed a step. Below the entire error message. 

 *** FATAL ***                                          CP =       0.047   TIME= 09:47:41
 Additive Manufacturing is not available for this product.              

 ************************************************************************
 The above error is non-recoverable by ANSYS                            
  ANSYS run terminated by the indicated error                           
  Current data base saved if possible.

What does this message mean? Is it a problem of license or an other problem ?

Thank for your answered and your time.

Hi 

Can you try closing additive window and open %appdata% and change the name of the ansys_additive to ansys_additive_old and try it running again. 

Regards

Thank for your answer.

I use the workbench with "AM DED Process" in the Custom Systems Part and ANSYS Mechanical, so I don't see what you talk about with the additive window. Below some image to illustrate.
